CLASSICAL GREEK - Penthesilea
Penthesilea was an Amazonian queen, daughter of Ares and Otrera and sister of Hippolyta, Antiope and Melanippe. 

She had killed Hippolyta with a spear when they were hunting deer. This accident caused Penthesilea so much grief that she wished only to die, but, as a warrior and an Amazon, she had to do so honorably and in battle. She therefore was easily convinced to join in the Trojan War, fighting on the side of Troy's defenders.
